You are provided with the following information about the Canadian turkey market:1. The world price of turkey is $5.2. The Canadian turkey market is currently (before the new trade agreement) protected by a tariffrate quota (TRQ) of the following format:a) the in-quota tariff is $1 per unitb) the import quota volume is 100 unitsc) the over-quota tariff is $10 per unit.3. An excess demand (ED) (for imports) function for turkey has been estimated as? = 28 − 0.14?.
Notes: Canada is a small importing country in the world market for turkeys.
Answer the question below:
The Canadian government is considering reducing the in-quota tariff to $0.50. Modify the diagram for this market, and solve for the Canadian turkey price and the volume of imports. Label all relevant functions, axes, etc.

Assume that Japanese-made and U.S.-made automobiles are of the same quality and are considered to be perfect substitutes. Suppose that the U.S. government imposes a tariff on Japanese-made automobiles. 1.) Using the line drawing tool, show the effect on the market for Japanese-made automobiles. Properly label your line. 2.) Using the point drawing tool, identify the new equilibrium price and quantity. Label it 'E₂'. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects. As a result of the tariff, the price of Japanese-made cars rises and the quantity falls.
